Everything about the car is good. The glove compartment was broken but its an easy fix. Drives like a manual. It was clean to the point it almost looked brand new. I also wouldve liked 2 key fob instead of one.

Why it stands out
The 2016 Ford Focus stands out as a refreshed version of Ford’s small car, and the update helped it improve in some key areas even though it is still not perfect. It is a 4-door, 5-passenger small car, and its appeal comes from the kind of everyday practicality that matters in this segment: fuel economy, price, ride quality, and easy-to-use controls. Ford’s “One Ford” approach also gave the Focus a more refined character than the two generations before it, which helped establish its reputation as a strong American small car.
That refinement is a major part of what makes the 2016 Ford Focus distinctive, and it is also why the car is described as a better-looking, more competitive entry in a crowded market. The Focus is positioned against import rivals such as the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, and Hyundai Elantra, which shows how seriously it is taken among compact cars. At the same time, it is not flawless, and the source makes clear that it still has shortcomings even after the refresh.
Owners generally echo the car’s strengths, especially its smooth ride, good fuel economy, and sporty handling. They also tend to appreciate that it feels reliable and offers modern features. Some drivers, however, have noted concerns about engine responsiveness and a gearshift that can be too smooth, which can lead to occasional mistakes when changing gears.
